[samiam0440]

I am trying to follow the steps provied at on Viruses/Spyware/Malware, preliminary removal instructions by julio and step 7 doesnt really seem clear to me. It doesnt exactly tell you what to dowload after you click on the link. Please help. Thank You

Download SpyBot Search and Destroy from here

http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

And go through the installation instructions, when you reach an option where you can enable or disable the teatimer protection make sure it is disabled and that you click on the button to immunize your computer.

Also make sure that you update it too.

Good luck
